Money Shame: My Surprising Special Sauce for Transformation

Most of us have HUGE resistance to doing money work — at least in the beginning.

An elegant, successful client of mine once told me: she’d rather talk about her sex life than her bank accounts!

And even when we know that we “should” work on our money — we’re still resistant. Talk to a bookkeeper? Yikes! Look at our income and spending with our honey? Run away!!

There’s a name for this resistance. It’s not just fear. It’s shame. Money Shame. And we’ve all got it.

That’s why the “tough love” approach to money absolutely positively doesn’t work. Because it’s just piling more shame upon shame.

The only way out of Money Shame … is through. Gently, gently, gently.

Curl up, pour yourself a cuppa, and let me tell you a story about a woman who overcame Money Shame … and actually learned to recognize the gifts hidden within it.

(Spoiler alert: this story’s about yours truly.)

You’ll also get a chance to practice my favorite, completely-not-scary-at-all-I-promise, 60-second practice for healing Money Shame.

Money Shame can be sneaky and subtle — or deafeningly loud. But there’s always a way through.

For me and the dear community members I support, the way out of Money Shame includes:

Mindfulness

Gentleness, patience, and nurturing self-care

Forgiveness and compassion — for yourself and others

Receiving support from trusted mentors and friends

… and celebrating every single baby step you take.

These are just some of the practices we spend a full year working with in my beloved, flagship program, The Art of Money.

Is 2017 your year to bring un-shaming, empowerment, and peace to your money relationship? Then you’ll discover a treasure trove of support in The Art of Money, now open for a short time.

Hi there, I'm Bari. I'm a financial therapist, mamapreneur, and founder of The Art of Money (which is a methodology, a year-long money school, and a book!) I’m on a mission to bring healing, awareness, and un-shaming to our money relationships. I’ve already guided thousands of people to new, more loving, and refreshingly honest relationships with money. Because creating a meaningful, empowered relationship with money is massively healing. And a radical act of self-love. Plus, I just love doing this work. It is, without a doubt, my life's passion.
